You can't. 2003 is a done deal.

Installing Office 2007 Home & Student on a 2nd PC

Posted: 26 Nov 2007 02:04 PM PST

Where did you get this version of Home and Student (retail store or with a
computer)? If it is a retail version it should install onto three different
computers. Look at the packaging (back near the bottom of the unusual
shaped, difficult to open, until you learn the tricks, case) that the CD
came in and it will tell you how many computers it will install in. Also
the 3 install version has part number X12-09054-01 as one of the last lines
on the back of the package.

Getting rid of the annoying Fluent interface

Posted: 26 Nov 2007 08:51 AM PST

Hi Jens,

To add to JoAnn's reply, you can reduce the ribbon height by double clicking the active tab or using Ctrl+F1. The MS doentation
on their decisions for the ribbon and its current configuration are available through

My first though after seeing the new "Fluent" interface in office 2007
is how i can turn it of. Af which point did drop-down menus become
unfasionable? Why do i need to the the options all the time? It takes
up valuable screen real-estate, especially on a wide-screen laptop
display. Please tell me there is a way to get office 2007 back to
"classic" mode.>>

Office 2007 Setup Successful - but Office won't run

Posted: 26 Nov 2007 05:56 AM PST

Hi Ian,

** collect information**

1. collect the Event Log with the steps below:
---------------------
a. Click "Start", click "Run", input "eventvwr" (without quotation marks) and press Enter.
b. Right click on "Application" on the left frame, choose "Save Log file As", navigate to the Desktop, input "app" in the "File name" blank,
and then click save.
c. Right click on "System", with the same method, save it as "sys".
d. Locate the two saved log files on the Desktop and send them to me at com.

2. Send the Office 2007 setup log file to me at com for further research.
------------------------------
a. Click Start menu-> Run, type "%Temp%" (without the quotation marks) in the Open box and press Enter.
b. Find the file "Microsoft Office 2007 SetupExe(****).log" in the folder. **** means the number.
c. Send this file as an attachment to me.

** Suggestion **

Based on my experience, this issue is mostly caused that there is problem with the Office 2007 registration/activation on the computer.
Follow the steps below to see if it works.

Step 1: Install the latest version of Windows Installer
===============
Download and install the latest version of the Windows Installer (Instmsiw.exe) from the following link.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=889482FC-5F56-4A38-B838-DE776FD4138C&displaylang=en

Step 2: Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs to uninstall Office 2007

Step 3: Come into Windows Clean Boot Mode to reinstall Office 2007
=================================
It will disable all third party software from loading at startup so that we can narrow down if the issue is related to the third party
software.

1. Click Start menu-> Run, type "msconfig" (without the quotation marks) in the Open box and press Enter.
2. On the General tab, choose Selective Startup; click to clear the "Process System.ini File", "Process WIn.ini File", "Load System
Services" and "Load Startup Items" check boxes. You cannot clear the "Use Original Boot.ini" radio button.
Note: You can click the Normal Startup radio button to return to the normal Windows Startup after the test.

3. Click the "Services" tab. Check "Hide all microsoft services", click disable all. If the "disable all" is not available, please just skip it.
4. Click the "Startup" tab, click "disable all". If the "disable all" is not available, please just skip it.

5. Click OK.
6. Restart the computer. Install Office 2007.

Try to run Word 2007 again. What is the result?

In case that the issue persists, go to the folder C:\Doents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Office\Data\, delete
the file Opa12.dat. Restart Office 2007. What is the result?

Office application version does not match

Posted: 23 Nov 2007 06:51 AM PST

With regard outlook I would suggest creating a new profile.

There are a number of MS kb articles regarding this err.msg, they all point
to the msg in 2007 and business contact manager.
Presumably the uninstall of Office 2007 removed the Office12 folder?
You might try this:
1.As an administrator, start each 2003 Office program in which the err is
received. To do this, follow these steps: a. In Windows Explorer, locate
the executable (.exe) file for the 2003 Office program.
b. Right-click the .exe file, and then click Run as administrator.
c. If you receive the User Account Control dialog box, click
Continue.
2.Click OK when you receive the error message.

Office 2007 deployment made complicated. Why?

Rob,
If you are having troubles then I see that I am completely ed.
Upgraded office to 2007 and Excel locks up within minutes. Getting
"Data file couldn't be closed..." error in Outlook and so on. Having
issues now with ADOBE too not present prior to the upgrade...have pro
version 8.1.1.
I'm a one-man-show, no IT department and can't afford the IT
consulting services of the variety you apparently offer. So now I
uninstall and go back? I've lost now 7 days of productivity and while
MS doesn't care about that it really hurts me.

Best of luck and hope you can flush out answers.

Office 2007 Pro Crashing Problems

Posted: 21 Nov 2007 12:51 PM PST

Thanks, G n' O. I'm running Acrobat 8.1.1, but it too has some problems with
pdfmaker files. the ms support website is, once again, useless for
non-programmers and also fails to deal with office 2007 issues. The point is
that these problems are all new to the upgraded MS Office. Neither Acrobat
nor MathType caused any problems in the Office 2003 versions. Additionally,
MS Office 2007 seems to be loaded with a host of other problems. So, despite
all the legal disclaimers ("weasel words"), Microsoft has seriously fallen
down with this new release.

Office12 setup fails in VPC2007

Posted: 21 Nov 2007 06:20 AM PST

Hi Eric,

thank you - I found an other logfile that gives much better details (german
version):
Fehler 1933. Einige geschützte Windows-Dateien konnten nicht aktualisiert
werden. SFP-Fehler: 3. Liste der geschützten
Dateien:\r\nc:\programme\gemeinsame dateien\microsoft shared\web server
extensions\40\bin\fp4autl.dll

I copied that file from the office installation souce to the bin directory
by hand, restarted setup again and it worked fine.

Thank you!
